Objective To prepare an antiserum of human putative magnesium transporter protein (HPT protein) to study its biological effects on the drug resistance of gastric cancer cell by observing its expression level. Methods The cDNA encoding HPT protein was cloned and sequenced. Prokaryotic expression vector was constructed and HPT protein fused with histidine tag was expressed. Mice were immunized with the polyacrylamide gel particles containing the fusion protein, and the antisera of them were detected for antibody activity by Western blot. Using the antiserum, HPT protein expression level was assessed in different gastric cancer cell line. Results The sequence of cloned cDNA fragment was consistent with that of HPT. After BL21/pRSETB bacterium was induced with IPTG, a new protein band with a relative molecular weight of 55kD was showed on SDS PAGE profile, and further proved to be fusion protein with histidine tag by Western blot. The antiserum of immunized mice only recognized a unique protein band with a relative molecular weight of 50kD. HPT protein expression level in SGC7901/ADR was higher than in SGC7901. Conclusion The antiserum of HPT protein was successfully prepared, and HPT was found to probably take part in the gastric cancer cell MDR

Objective To study on transcatheter closure of membranous ventricular septal defect (VSD) with pseudoaneurysm by patent ductus arteriosus(PDA) occlusion devices in children and summarize the skill and clinical experience. Methods The study included 20 membranous VSD cases in children.According to the finding of the left ventricular angiography, various kinds of the PDA occlusion devices was implanted. The mean diameter of the waist of the occluder was ( 10.4 ± 2.6) mm. Examination by transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) immediately and left ventricular angiography after the occluder was implanted 15minutes later to evaluate the efficacy. Results In the 20 patients, one of the Ⅳ type VSD patient was quitted because of the significant residual shunts(≥2 mm). Slightly residual shunts ( < 2 mm) was found in one Ⅲ type VSD patient with multi-outlet. And disappeared in 1 month after the procedure, which VSD patient was confirmed by TTE. Thirteen cases were normal by EKG examination (or the same before procedure).Incomplete right bundle branch block was found in 4 cases. First degree atrioventricular block was found in 1 case and paroxysmal junctional tachycardia was found in 1 case. All of them were recovered in 1 week.Conclusions Transcatheter interventional therapy with PDA occlusion devices for membranous VSD with pseudoaneurysm is safe and effective. The key of the procedure is to select suitable occluder and suitable position to plant them according to the membranous morphologic characteristics,size and position of the pseudoaneurysm. It is a facultative method for transcatheter therapy this kind of congenital heart disease.

according to the difference of femoral eccentricity on the affected and healthy sides. In the reduction group (30 cases), the difference value was <-5 mm. In the normal group (87 cases), the difference value was -5-5 mm. In the increased group (45 cases), the difference value was > 5 mm. Femoral stem and femoral prosthesis type were compared among different groups. SF-12 scale score, Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) and Harris score were evaluated and compared before and after replacement. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Standard eccentricity of femoral prosthesis mainly accounted for 77%, 63% and 73% in the reduction group, normal group and increased group, respectively (P > 0.05). No significant difference in average eccentricity was detected in each group between the affected and healthy sides (P> 0.05). WOMAC score was significantly higher after replacement than that before replacement in three groups (P < 0.05). No significant difference in WOMAC score was found among three groups before replacement (P > 0.05). No significant differences in pain and stiffness were detected among three groups after replacement (P > 0.05), and significant differences in physical function were found (P < 0.05). The physical function was highest in the normal group. No significant difference in SF-12 scale score was seen in the three groups before and after replacement (P > 0.05). The physical ability score was elevated after replacement in the three groups (P < 0.05). Mental scores were significantly elevated in reduction and normal groups (P < 0.05). The excelent and good rate of Harris score was significantly higher in the increased group (96%) than in the reduction group (70%) and normal group (87%) (P < 0.05). These findings indicate that the increased eccentricity contributed to the pain easement after total hip arthroplasty and promoted functional recovery. The decreased eccentricity could worsen patient’s pain, and was not conducive to the restoration of joint function after replacement.
